Not switching to Netscape 8.0

By on May 20, 2005 in Science & Technology

Netscape has released version 8.0 of their Firefox based browser. The UI looks slick and it has nice features like warning while visiting spyware sites and passcard to manage all your passwords. Since it is based on Firefox 1.0.3, you get tabbed browsing and fast rendering with the Gecko engine.

But while taking it on a spin today, there were two things that put me off

  • When I click on the feeds in bloglines, it does not open anything in the tab
  • When I open many tabs, the tab which is in focus expands, this reducing the space for other tabs and thus reducing the space for their titles. Now to see the names of the other tabs, you have to click on an icon on the right, which is one additional click.

So I am sticking to Firefox, which does not have these two issues
